This has to be one of the worst films ever made. How anyone can take it seriously is beyond me. The characters are completely uninteresting, there is absolutely no storyline, the hand-held is brutal on the eyes and stomach, the editing is practically nonexistent, the sound is bad, and a film that should have been 10 minutes long max rambles on for eight times that.

I have seen far better films from freshmen in film school with a $100 budget.

I am shocked that my local festival selected this film. Every person in the theater was shifting in their seats and sighing through the whole ordeal. Don't waste your money or your time.
